About us

Luminous was founded in London in 2002 with a simple but ambitious mission: to bring clarity, creativity and insight to corporate storytelling.

What began as an agency specialising in annual and sustainability reporting, working with FTSE-listed companies to communicate complex ideas clearly, has now, over more than two decades, expanded its capability across corporate reporting, sustainability, brand and digital.

In 2026, Luminous is bringing this heritage to Australia, offering a distinctive blend of strategic insight and world-class creative capability. Led by Designate co-founder Roger Lindeback and award-winning creative director Andrew Nobbs, the Sydney-based team works with leading ASX companies to shape clearer narratives, create stronger brands and enable more effective corporate communication.
